Most people dive into working out without first learning about the correct forms, or for that matter, which exercises to perform. Initially, every body makes progress, but it always stalls after a few months. Especially for ectomorphs, we quickly come to realize that the gym is not really helping much at all. What’s next? We become frustrated, but keep on trying new exercises and listening to random advice without having any clear direction. At some point, sooner or later, we go online and try to conduct some research on how to train to gain massive muscles. And the result? We become even more frustrated and overwhelmed.

Getting to the point where you actually sit down and try to seriously research for ways to get big is already a big step forward. However, this is also when you painfully become aware of your ignorance regarding training knowledge. So many sources of knowledge talk about so many different ways to get big. So many different programs and exercises to choose from. Every single person claims to be able to help you gain massive muscles in amazingly short time! Who to listen to? Which program to pick? See how much you have grown since first starting working out?

The thing is, there is no way you can sit there and be able to understand everything about training and tell who is right and who is talking bullshit. There is too much information, and too many different or even opposing opinions. The only thing you can do in this situation is: knowing how to find the right program and just get started immediately. Pick one program to stick with… and have FAITH in it. Trust in your choice. Believe that the program will be able to help you. Chances are, you will not fail.

Getting big and gaining muscle mass is not just about program selection. 90% of your success comes from proper rest and nutrition for ample recovery, and that requires determination, consistency, faith, and a burning desire to get big. Most ectomorphs never get big because they don’t have what it takes to get big, not because they cannot find the right program. Follow my instruction on how to find the right program, put in the right effort and determination, and the rest will be history.

RECAP: Follow my instruction on how to find the right program, start immediately, and stay determined, consistent, and faithful to your program. Most important of all, nurture a ferocious, burning desire to get big. And you WILL get big.
